Ontology Term : Pfam:PF12215 beta-glucosidase 2, glycosyl-hydrolase family 116 N-term EMBL-EBI

Description  This domain is found in bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes. This domain is typically between 320 to 354 amino acids in length. This domain is found associated with Pfam:PF04685. It is found just after the extreme N terminus. The N-terminal is thought to be the luminal domain while the C terminal is the cytosolic domain. The catalytic domain of GBA-2 is unknown. The primary catabolic pathway for glucosylceramide is catalysis by the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase. In higher eukaryotes, glucosylceramide is the precursor of glycosphingolipids, a complex group of ubiquitous membrane lipids [1]. Mutations in the human protein cause motor-neurone defects in hereditary spastic paraplegia [2,3]. The catalytic nucleophile, identified in UniProtKB:Q97YG8_SULSO, is a glutamine-335 in the downstream family Pfam:PF04685 [4].
